Now, I'm very noise sensitive, so it probably bothers me more than many (even fountains irritate my ears and you should see me if there is a drip in the house). But the pickleball noise is a sound that does seem to fade away over time. Some of your visitors might be bothered but they'll be leaving soon and the noise will just end being a sound to them before they leave.
Are you saying the next house you buy will be next to a pickleball court now?
There are so many houses for sale that are not close to the rec. centers. Why would you?
